Question :

André Bormanis has claimed that ideas were floated for Porthos-centred episodes of Enterprise - including "Porthos becomes intelligent", "Porthos can communicate with a canine alien", and even "Porthos has to take command"! Should we have had more Porthos episodes?

Question :

The violence in DS9's "To the Death" was cut, with 45 seconds cut to remove the on screen death of 32 Jem'Hadar. A wise move for a family friendly show, or naked censorship?

The Enterprise episode "Unexpected" showed Tucker becoming pregnant after an alien woman lures him into participating in a game that doubles as their sex act. Some fans call it a rape, the results of which are treated comically. What's your opinion?

The original "City on the Edge of Forever" script showed members of the Enterprise crew dealing and using drugs, but Roddenberry changed this to an accidental overdose as he didn't want the crew depicted that way. Did this improve or harm the episode?
